New World will comewith or without JWs!

by abiather in

we know how animalistic religion can become if we have a look at those religions which had political powers!

they simply executed anyone with a differing opinion.

you dont need any religion.

snare&racket,

What I posted is meant for JWs (not for ex-JWs).

This is the information that helped a very zealous JW to come out. FORTUNATELY, he had a science back-ground. What he originally got was a very detailed version to suit his stature. What I posted is a translated summary.

You would note that in the beginning of the article, I said:

“Religions are animalistic and You don’t need any religion. You only need a little bit of science!”

Article ended making a call to turn to proven science, which is also a history before us:

“Because it’s pure science: generation—growth—decay—then regeneration.”

The only mistake I did was that to give a supplementary proof, I quoted the Bible: “It has been happening and will be happening. (Ecclesiastes 1:9, 10)” which may have given the impression that I belong to some Christian Church who are in need of alalogy—I am sorry for that! I have no religion.

Have a look at the process in Biology called METAMORPHOSIS through which a caterpillar becomes a butterfly!

The caterpillar is like a worm (like present greed-ridden world)

The butterfly is very beautiful (like the new world of contentment)

What brings the transformation? This is what happens: At some stage of its development, the caterpillar becomes very greedy, it starts to consume more than its need (like the present world’s motto—maximum production and maximum consumption even by borrowing which even calls for frequent Federal Shutdown). When consumption exceeds its metabolic needs, its body starts to die and starts to liquefy. But within the body of the caterpillar there are a few cells—which the Scientists refer to as imaginal cells. These imaginal cells are literally dreaming a new reality. (They are like those who have developed a distaste towards pleasures of this world—whether they are materially rich or not—Mathew 5:3)

These cells vibrate in a different frequency of consciousness. When caterpillar’s body recognizes these imaginal cells, the immune cells of the caterpillar attack them. But the imaginal cells remain immune to the onslaught as they vibrate at a different frequency. Soon the immune cells give up, and the imaginal cells start to gather in small clusters. Then something else happens—the clusters of cells start to connect with each other. When connectivity of these imaginal cells reaches a critical level, SOMETHING MAGICAL HAPPEN! A gene, the genetic code that was lying dormant in the caterpillar, wakes up, and in that genetic code is the information for wings, information for a new heart, information for the antennas, information for legs and information for a new metabolic rate (metabolism of flying creatures has to be different from that of a worm).

The imaginal cells start using the dying matter of the caterpillar as a nutritive soup; it becomes the culture medium the imaginal cells use to grow and to connect; and soon the butterfly emerges with the flight to FREEDOM! So will be with this old world, from which a New World will emerge.

What is the proof? When you plant a tiny mustard seed, what happens is history—some invisible force comes to make it sprout, grow and bear seeds. The same force has been active, and will be active to make the new world sprout, grow and bear fruits!

This old world will become New World—with or without the preaching of JWs. Because it’s pure science: generation—growth—decay—then regeneration. It has been happening and will be happening. (Ecclesiastes 1:9, 10) JWs are simply wasting their time preaching to hate the caterpillar and to work for the butterfly!

Can Spirit-Directed Organization Lie?

by abiather in

when god says something, it is like the meaning of traffic signal: red light means always stop.. when spirit-directed organization says something, it is like shining ever brighter till the full light of day, (proverb 4:18) and then it becomes dimmer and dimmer and at the end of the day darker and darkest, .

thus red lights meaning becomes start!.

yes, a spirit-directed organization can lie.

JWs organization is spirit-directed organization; yet that spirit is not of God.

Proof is that God never CORRECTS his own teaching (Numbers 23:19; Malachi 3:6; Lamentation 3:22, 23; James 1:17; Hebrew 13:8), and it is IMPOSSIBLE for God to change His teaching (Rev 1:8; Hebrew 6:18) but the spirit that directs JWs organization does change teachings.

LOL, this will freak you out

by transhuman68 in

ive been cruising the net in search of the meaning of life (lol- as if!

) and came across this amazing piece of writing that i think puts everything in perspective... .

at first, when you really get that nothing matters at all it's very depressing.

abiather

Thank you for posting that, transhuman68

I read it (NOTHING MATTERS, BY jim sloman) completely, very nice musing!

I liked: “Paradoxically, when we see clearly the emptiness and meaninglessness and insignificance of everything, including our own life, after passing through the "emptiness of emptiness" there comes A LIGHT HEART, which contains both a smile and a tear… If nothing matters, we're free not to take it all so seriously.”

Yet unwittingly he touches on the purpose of life. He says: “If we jump off a building we're still going to go splat, no matter what we may or may not have realized. If we stub our toe, it's still going to hurt. If we eat a lot of fat, we're still likely to develop heart disease or cancer. The laws of life are not repealed.”

Actually, we are not asking what is the purpose of life? rather we are being asked that question by life. For example, when we are moderate in our habits such as sleeping, eating, working, entertainments and thinking, our bodies respond pleasantly. If one is not moderate with regard to those habits, his body starts giving trouble—with its organs malfunctioning, or even simply shutting down! All these go to show that one’s physical body is designed to serve a purpose. One can drive it towards comfort or calamity—it all depends on the choices one makes! Hence existence is asking you: What are doing with your life? Are you driving it towards comfor or calamity?

Again, see what happens when we refuse to think negatively about others, but are determined to see their good and send good wishes to them deep from our hearts, we attract good to us—life becomes smooth! What if when we actually help someone—how does it change our life? This we will know only when we really give—we will really feel happier than receiving. (Acts 20:35)

If we move from basement and climb higher realms of consciousness, even up to God-consciousness and unity-consciousness, life will become more and more meaningful! You will feel like Jesus who said: ‘though I am in this world, I am not of it,’—something like a super-sensuous joy!

North Korea vs Watchtower

a self appointed dictatorship.

removing anyone who dares to question.. deleting from literature and history anything embarrassing to the movement.

zero tolerance, functioning & appearance of the movement is worth more than an individuals life.. .....but am i talking about north korea or watchtower?

abiather

The kid (Kim Jong Un) almost made to a suicidal point when he flexed his nuclear muscles against South Korea three months back. Then somehow good sense prevailed, he turned back. With old wisdom (uncle) being dismissed and destroyed, WT can induct the kid into their GB! Both will make a good TEAM = Together Empowering & Accomplishing More!!!

To know how bad or animalistic religion could be, take a look at when religion had also political powers! Think of the situation in US if WT were like a priest to the US Government! How many executions could have been carried out by now!

The days of wires powering electronic devices could soon be at an end, with the development of a new system that will allow laptops, mobile phones and televisions to be left unplugged in the home while being recharged.

The new technology exploits a recent breakthrough in physics, according to the US company WiTricity.
It has shown that it can send electricity “wirelessly” through the air and can switch on a light bulb or keep a computer running.

“Let’s face it: wires .,” Eric Giler, chief executive of WiTricity, said at the TEDGlobal conference in Oxford this week.
“Batteries also ..” The new system has the potential to do away with mountains of disposable batteries and miles of wiring.
“There is something like 40 billion disposable batteries built every year for power that, generally speaking, is used within a few inches or feet of where there is very inexpensive power,” Mr Giler said.

The system is able to operate safely because the energy is largely transferred through magnetic fields.
Mr Giler was keen to emphasise safety during the demonstration. “There's nothing going on — I’m OK,”
he said as he walked around a television running on wireless power.

The science behind the system was developed by the physicist Marin Soljacic at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
After being woken on three consecutive nights by the “battery low” beep of his mobile phone, he wondered:
“Why can’t all this electricity in the walls just come out and power my phone?”

Professor Soljacic took advantage of the principle of resonance, whereby the transfer of energy becomes more efficient when a certain frequency is applied. When two objects have the same resonant frequency, they exchange energy without having an effect on surrounding objects. Acoustic resonance causes glasses to smash when a singer hits a specific note; WiTricity uses the resonance of low-frequency electromagnetic waves.

The WiTricity system works by transferring energy between two magnetic coils. The first coil is placed in a box attached to a home’s electricity mains, and can be embedded in a wall or ceiling. The second coil is attached to a device such as a television or laptop. Electromagnetic waves are transferred between the two coils and the second coil absorbs energy.

The Institute of Physics in London confirmed that the technology was safe, as it used a magnetic field that “had no detrimental effects on the human body”.

There are drawbacks, though. Only smaller devices can be charged, and they must be within two metres of a wall that provides wireless power — although it is hoped that the range can be extended to as much as 30 metres.

Wireless technology has been demonstrated before, including systems that use lasers. Researchers said that WiTricity’s technology was a breakthrough because the system did not require a clear line of sight between the charger and the device.

Prologos:

"And the Lord said, ‘Who will entice Ahab into attacking Ramoth Gilead and going to his death there?’

“One suggested this, and another that. 21 Finally, a spirit came forward, stood before the Lord and said, ‘I will entice him.’

22 “‘By what means?’ the Lord asked.

“‘I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,’ he said.

“‘You will succeed in enticing him,’ said the Lord . ‘Go and do it.’

23 “So now the Lord has put a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours. The Lord has decreed disaster for you.”--1King 22:20-23.

What a fitting verse from the Bible itself!

Thank you, prologos

thus Red Light’s meaning becomes START!

Yes, a spirit-directed organization can lie. That is why Bible says the following:

“Do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.”—1John 4:1

Hence, there is nothing wrong in JWs using the term “Spirit-Directed Organization.”

“Let the one who does wrong continue to do wrong; let the vile person continue to be vile; let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.”—Revelation 22:11

Is ingratitude and education inversely proportionate?

by abiather in

bible describes ingratitude as one of the characteristics of last days.

people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money ....ungrateful.... etc.

(2 timothy 3:2) it seems this prophecy about people becoming ungrateful is having its fulfillment more than 100%.. i was watching an interview on the tv the other day.

You brought it to a nice conclusion when you touched on " excessive generosity"--something which people take advantage of!

Thank you for your Post 925 of 1157 on July 24, 2013, which has enough and more on Last Days.

I just wanted to highlight, under the guise of LAST DAYS prophesy, the need for us to be cautious and to less expect from others—that’s all.

I don’t why, I come across lots of ungrateful people in my life these days--yet they are all well-educated ones.

In the past, we used to link the ungrateful with the uneducated! Things are not so today--even terrorists are well-educated today!
